Thanks Jack. LOL. These wheels are a major downgrade in terms of quality compared to the DPE's but I really like them as well. Im sure when my new fronts get in I'll like it even more.


Thanks man.

LOL, I think you misread what I was trying to say. I didn't mean that I was buying a new front end. I just meant that I purchased new front wheels cuz I didn't like how weak the concavity was in the pictures above. Today my new wheels came in and so did my spacers. I could probably flush it out a tad bit more, but I think this looks pretty perfect especially since I got a lot of freeway miles ahead of me.

I'm quite pleased with how these wheels look. Here's how they sit now with the 9.5 box setup plus spacers. I kept my 245's in the front so theres a slight stretch but nothing crazy.

Thanks. I think they both have their strong points.I feel like the DPE's had more of a show stopper kinda look since the dishes were humungous to begin with, but the stretch and poke made it look ridiculously large. I really like this setup cuz I've always liked the 166's and regret ever selling my old set, but these are a great alternative and maybe even better option for me since I couldn't bring myself to purchase the same set of wheels for a second time.
